But President Bush and the grieved mother outside his ranch were worlds apart on how best to honor the dead. Bush said the United States must finish the job of bringing a stable democracy to Iraq.

I just strongly disagree." "Pulling the troops out would send a terrible signal to the enemy," he said.

These safety features will appear statewide in the coming years as the state receives about $250 million a year, or $1.25 billion over the course of the five-year federal transportation bill signed by President Bush on Wednesday. "This is a most welcome shot in the arm for our highway system," Cox said. Construction costs have risen sharply in recent years, and WYDOT has had to delay many projects, he said. About $100 million of the total package will go toward high priority projects identified by WYDOT, such as the $25 million reconstruction of the Togwotee Pass Highway portion of U.S. Highway 287-26 between Dubois and Moran Junction, he said.

A lab report confirmed Tuesday the animal suffered from VS. Wyoming last had a case of the disease in 1996. The disease will likely cause painful sores, and animals might refuse food and water, causing weight loss. It is rarely fatal and usually runs its course in two to three weeks. In the meantime, though, shipment of horses and cattle into and out of Wyoming may become more difficult and expensive.

Oldham said Canada will not accept horses from Wyoming because of the outbreak, and other states may impose sanctions.
